When a man is murdered while taking a shower -- á la Janet Leigh in "Psycho" -- we get flashbacks explaining how he got to that point. The dead man narrates a zany tale that primarily parodies both "Psycho" and "The Silence of the Lambs" but also includes send-ups of "Night of the Living Dead" and "Basic Instinct". The action culminates with the dramatic unveiling of the killer from Act I. [More]

Reviews for The Silence of the Hams
Horrible wanna-be Airplane type spoof. Only thing worth noting is that it came before 'Scary Movie,' which falls into the same category.
